===== Backgrounds Merits and Flaws =====

**Backgrounds:**\\

Ancestors: 3

You put names to faces among your ancestors.

Mentor: 2

Matthew's Buri-Jaan is a Sorna(3) named Amanda. Amanda is a caring shaman who taught him of Rites and the Gurahl culture, they are currently in different locations as Matthew had just finished his Gallivant and now had only one thing to do before he entered the Uzmati stage of his life. Amanda and he still stay in contact via texts.

Resources: 1

Sufficient. You don't get many spending sprees, but you've got a decent place to live, and a car that doesn't crap out every week—provided by Matthew working as a cook.

Rites: 3

Umbral Glade: 2

Size: 50 x 50.

A dug-up abandoned cave in swampland near Starke. The entrance is fairly small but because it is a Glade it is much bigger on the inside. A stream runs along the edge of his glade, this acts as his way into the umbra; The rest of the glade is made to be a living space suitable for both a human and a bear depending on what form Matthew is in at the time.

-----

**Merits:**\\

Spirit Magnet (1pt.): You naturally attract the attention of the spirits whenever you cross the Gauntlet into the Umbra. Most of the time, the Umbral inhabitants are simply curious, gathering around you to see who you are and what you’re doing in their “neck of the woods.” Occasionally you attract more than you bargained for — Banes are also likely to come calling. None of the spirits who collect in your vicinity are under your command unless you use a Gift that allows you to command them or influence them in some way.
(WW Core book pg. 482)

**Backstory:**\\
	Matthew Ellis was born to a restaurateur who deeply cared for him and fostered his caretaking nature from a young age. They ran a small diner that ran for cheap and did their best to provide for the local community, and in this work Matthew found a passion for two things cooking for others and helping others to get by when things got hard. Then one day when Matthew was seventeen and was out tending to a garden he had started he saw his mother being held up at knifepoint, at that moment he felt his form shifting.

	Soon after his First Change, he began to feel a calling away from his home, and when he told his mother of what he was feeling she revealed herself to be a Kinfolk and told him that everything would be explained but he should go to meet the person calling for him. The person awaiting him was his new mentor Amanda, she introduced him to the lore of the Gurahl and all the things a Gurahl must know to do the will of Gaia. Over a year, Amanda taught Matthew about the role they played and the rituals he needed to know so he may act as a Shaman of the River Keepers. He was taught the lore of the Pattern Breaker, of enigmas that a shaman must be able to help solve, about the War of Rage and those who participated in it.

Rite of Passage and After - 

	Nearing the end of his Gallivant when he and his Mentor were still journeying together they found the location of an umbral glade that appeared to be losing the plentiful gnosis that it could produce in the past, upon this discovery Matthew’s mentor decided his Rite of Passage to join the River Keepers and end his Gallivant would be to perform Rites of Replenishment upon this Glade until it was as beautiful and prosperous as it should be! And so he began to over the course of many days perform this Rite again and again so he may return the Gnosis to this sacred place, as his task came to a close he was given the rank of Kovi and initiated into the Tribe!

	Matthew now out of his Gallivant decided to take up residence in the Glade he had worked to cleanse. This Glade happened to be in a swamp near a town called Starke, and he has heard that other Changing Breeds take up residence in that area so he now plans a trip to speak to others in the area to see how they feel about a Gurahl taking up residence nearby and to see what they are like in person rather than just hearing stories about them and their slightly less aggressive ways compared to the distant past.
